Second slice of the speed-of-dealing work: select cards instead of typing them.
Typing AH into a two-character box is fine at a desk and miserable at a table — it needs a keyboard, it accepts nonsense like ZZ, and it happily deals the same card to two players.
The two card fields become face-up card slots. Tapping one opens a 52-card grid (four suit columns, thirteen rank rows) — one tap per card. Picking the first card moves straight on to the second, because a dealer picking hole cards is always picking two. Cards already dealt elsewhere at the table are greyed out and name who holds them, so a duplicate is visibly out of play rather than silently accepted.
Cards are still stored as the same two plain characters everything has always read; the suit only becomes a symbol on its way to a human. That formatting is now shared, so the table pucks, seat editor, pot wizard, hand history and CSV all say A♥ K♦ instead of three of them saying AH KD.
Validation (Playwright, headed)
First round validated in a real browser window rather than headless.
The two-tap flow through real clicks: tapped the slot → grid opened with exactly 52 cells → tapped A♥ → it saved, the picker stayed open and advanced to card 2 with A♥ now greyed out → tapped K♦ → saved and closed. Stored as ["AH","KD"], displayed as A♥ K♦ in the editor and on the table puck, both correctly red.
Duplicate prevention: with two seats holding cards, exactly the four dealt cards were disabled, each titled "Already dealt to ".
Clear empties the active slot; empty slots render a ＋ placeholder rather than going blank.
Labels flow through: played a hand to showdown and confirmed the wizard ("Ann (A♥ K♦) — up to $2.00"), the payout summary, the hand-history row and the CSV line all carry the symbols.
No console errors; no horizontal overflow at 390px or 1280px.
Based on feature/casino-holdem-live-betting (PR #21) — both touch the seat editor template and wireSeatFields, so branching off master would have guaranteed a conflict for whichever landed second. Merge #21 first, then this.
Still to come
Double-tap / long-press gestures on the seat pucks are the remaining item from your list.

Typing `AH` into a two-character box is fine at a desk and miserable at a table — it needs a keyboard, it accepts nonsense like `ZZ`, and it happily deals the same card to two players.
The two card fields become **face-up card slots**. Tapping one opens a **52-card grid** (four suit columns, thirteen rank rows) — **one tap per card**. Picking the first card moves straight on to the second, because a dealer picking hole cards is always picking two. **Cards already dealt elsewhere at the table are greyed out** and name who holds them, so a duplicate is visibly out of play rather than silently accepted.
